High intensity tabata trial

This is an interval training program created by Japanese scientist Dr Izumi Tabata based on his research on high-intensity exercise. The “Tabata protocol”, as it is called, requires the following:

+ Five minutes’ warm-up+ Eight intervals of 20 seconds of intense exercise followed by 10 seconds of rest+ Two minutes’ cool-down

In my version, each number has five rounds. One round is 20 seconds of the first exercise, a 10-second rest, then 20 seconds of the second exercise. So for number 1, do as many barbell thrusters as you can in 20 seconds, rest for 10 seconds, then do as many barbell rows as you can in 20 seconds and rest for 10 seconds. Repeat four times.
